US Urges China to Cooperate on Climate Change Action

US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has called on China to work with Washington to fight the “existential threat” of climate change. Speaking on Saturday, she said the two countries – the largest greenhouse gas emitters – had a joint responsibility to lead the way on climate action. She called on China to support the US-led Green Climate Fund. Ms. Yellen is on a four-day trip to Beijing in an attempt to boost relations between the two countries. There’s been no formal co-operation between China and the US on climate change since the administration of former President Donald Trump.
